14 Behold, with a great plague will the LORD smite thy people , and thy children, and thy wives , and all thy goods.
Qu. Why the People, for his Sin? Ans. 1. Because the generality of them sinned in complying with his Wicked and Idolatrous Commands through Fear, v. 11. 2. Because he suffered in his Peoples Destruction: For as the Honour, and Safety, and Strength of a King lies in the Multitude and Prosperity of his People, Prov. 14. 28. so when they are diminished and destroyed, the king is very much weakned and endangered by it.
Whose Lives shall go for the Lives of thy Brethren, v. 4.
Marginal references: Heb. a great stroke.
